+## Copy behavior
+
+The HDFS service copies files to exact destination file paths and rejects
+directory sources and destinations. Copy overwrites an existing destination by
+removing it before copying the source. This replacement is not atomic: if the
+copy fails after removing the destination, the destination can be missing or
+incomplete.
